Ivisa (Evissa) is so called this island of Spaniards, but we are more accustomed to a common, but not quite the correct pronunciation of Ibiza.
This place struck me with its beauty of the beauty of nature, the diversity of music and skills so competently combine all this in one. And after all, not in vain Ibiza wears the name "Island of the holiday", the music is heard here everywhere. The azure water of an unprecedented transparency adds paints and makes our vacation unforgettable.
I visited this island in 2016 and still looking at the album with photos, well, and the most interesting impressions will share with you right now in this article.
Short video about Ibiza
How to get
The most practical way to get to Ibiza from Moscow and St. Petersburg is to buy tickets to both ends. Well, if you bored to fly on the aircraft, and you would like to brighten the journey on your car or ferry. Read the following all possible options.
Plane
I'm not difficult to get from Moscow to Ibiza. The most optimal time on the way, without long transfers, approximately 11-12 hours.
Airplanes fly every day several times. Main airlines are Aeroflot, S7 Airlies, Lufthansa, Iberia, British Airways.
And, of course, an alternative to moving by bus - Sea transport. Many boats are ready to move you from one beach to another. The price, of course, is significantly different from the first option, but what kind of beauty you will see and get a little adrenaline from such fast on the water delivery. It is worth trying at least once.
Transport rental
If you are in Ibiza without your personal car, rental transport will be the most convenient and practical solution. Why?! First, taxis on the island is not cheap, pay 5 times a day at 20 EUR will be invisible and unprofitable.
Therefore, you can immediately take a car at the airport. And you will be free in your movement all vacation.
Not few companies who are engaged in car rental. The most famous, it is:
- Wisecars;
- Cardelmar;
- AUTOESCAPE.
And prices from 20 EUR and higher, given of course preferences taste for the brand of the machine. Looking for rental offers, for example.
You will be surprised, but the scooter and mopeds will be more expensive for rent. Over the day from about 25 EUR and higher. It is related, of course, first of all with parking and traffic jams. Moto is much more profitable, more convenient, and the most important thing is not hot moving around the island.
Tips for motorists, will be the same as everywhere in Europe.
- Parce in permitted places. The car can pick up, for 5 minutes, while you run on the next street to buy a mineral water or go across the road, make money from the card.
- Try not to signal with no particularly serious reason. Spaniards are a very expressive people. Start screaming, never guess what's the matter.
- Naturally, ride without breaking rules. It should be borne in mind that during the summer, there are a lot of people, tourists, traffic jams on the island. People who have come to the island for the first time, go unsure, flowing turns, stopping sharply or turning in the wrong places. Thereby causing emergencies. Therefore, the concentration on the road does not prevent.
- Use the navigation program for moving around the city of Waze. In my opinion, this is the most convenient program. She warns about police, breakdowns, traffic jams, etc. Very convenient and practical, and most importantly understandable in unfamiliar cities.
Well, in general, nothing special. Therefore, the music and ahead to open Ibiza.

Have something to add?
For the island of Ibiza, the reputation of the place was fixed long ago, where only young people can relax. We will try to look at it at different angles and explain why we consider it universal.
The mood of Ibiza
- This island, probably, like no other, causes many contradictory feelings. The "magical" place is famous for the whole world with all sorts of pleasures, spread on the wide areas of dance floors, beaches, water parks, luxury hotels ...
- Fireworks of emotions complement the stars with a world-famous, driving back and forth in the affordable proximity to fans and simple zooak.
- Completes this picturesque picture azure sky, merging with transparent water and caressing the body with a sand.
Would it affect, what could be the limitations in order to visit this paradise? Paradoxically, but the "island of Besa" (Ibiza is translated), many consciously bypass by the party because of the "outdated" data in the passport. As if the age has borders for fun! It is believed that Ibiza is a place where "Tusit" youth. And it is true! There are clubs here, in which incredible shows are taking place under the accompaniment of DJs with a world-famous name.
But, nevertheless, Ibiza has a number of first-class resorts for family holidays with children, away from the noise and "urban bustle". And if you have to rest not during the high season (for example, in winter or spring), then soft weather and privacy is provided to you. Therefore, we are convinced that this part of the Balearic Islands will suit everyone else, at any time of the year. It is only worth understanding who and where it is better to stop.
When to fly and how?
The most economical option will fly to Majorca or Barcelona charter flight for € 450 in the summer, and then - on ferry to Ibiza. The cost of the crossing is € 50-70. For comparison: the price of a direct flight to the island hesitates around $ 700-800. Charter flights are somewhat cheaper.
And another hint for economical: at the end of June - early July for accommodation in the hotel traditionally asked less than in the midst of the season, which ends in October. At the same time you can get to all parties, because The doors of the clubs are already open. Here are just waiting for you.
Where to stay? Resorts
Here everything is like in a fairy tale: you will go left - the dream will lose, go to the right - the peace will have. If you love the nights "to light the stars", we will recommend to be found in the city of Ibiza. This is a meeting place for travelers, clubber and nightly walks, emitting a holiday, holiday and nothing but the holiday of life. Do not release the camera from the hands and go back to the spare battery! Who knows, maybe, after midnight, it will be suitable for transvestite with false eyelashes, in an incredible boa and will ask to "borrow a light" ... everything is possible in Ibiza.
Here are the legendary clubs of Pacha and El Divino, luxury boutiques, bars restaurants. Ibiza City is a favorite place of celebrity meetings. Looking into the historic district of the Old Town, you can wander through the narrow cobbleous streets away from the musical "madness" of the local resort. And you can take walks along the Wharf Ibiza, where luxury yachts are moored.
- Despite the many advantages, the city has a couple of minuses that justice should be voiced. This is the absence of its own beach. Therefore, if you strive to Ibiza to take away from here a bronze tan, then choose another resort. Because from Ibiza Town to the nearest beach will have to get at least ten minutes.
- In addition, prices in the city (accommodation - not counting) an order of magnitude higher than the rest of the resorts. This is due to high demand among tourists to this place of rest. Still, here come here from all over the world to merge in a single ecstasy under the sounds of techno, house and trance. As a result, long turns and crowded streets. By the way, the island takes up to four million people annually. So, if you did not break to the epicenter of resort passions, book the hotel in advance.
And we are still exploring a calmer and incredibly beautiful resort of Portina.
Portinach
Here you will not spoil the mood of the wind: the rocks reliably protect the terrain from the pranks of nature. In this place you will be helped by mastering diving, so that you will see the seascape in your crystal clear water. The shores have both rocky and perfect sand. Ferries from other resorts regularly approach the pier. Among the incredible set of restaurants, I will, perhaps, Es Puet Blanc. He will appeal to married couples with children. There is a big gaming terrace, and immediately behind it - the sea, whose generous gifts will bring you on a tray. The bachelors will surely want to penetrate the atmosphere of the "Pite", designed for .. and even at the British - lovers of inexpensive and high-quality drinks. Collective singing with a mug of beer in hand and a rapid discussion of football matches will be provided with "Vincent Bar".
Talamanca
The Talamanca resort is suitable for fans of a noisy pastime, and their antagonists. True, there is one thing: five minutes drive from a quiet area is a noisy capital. As they say, draw conclusions yourself ...
In Talamanca, by the way, the most beautiful beach with a gentle entrance, which ensures a safe bathing for children. There is everything you need for comfortable sunbathing and swimming: sun loungers, umbrellas, rescuers, rides, bars, equipment for windsurfing ... It is located near the water park, where you can enhance the whole family.
San Antonio
The resort of San Antonio became famous as an English-speaking part of Ibiza. This is an exceptionally youth place. That is always noisy, especially at night. After all, they go here to pour. Therefore, an incredible number of nightly institutions, bars, discos and hotels are concentrated here, in which no days are not sleeping. Love Drive? So you are here.
Once again about the beaches
Ibiza is not the largest island in the area, but fifty beaches and coves do not leave doubts: there are enough places under the sun. Even those who are looking for privacy on hot days of the high season. In the north of the islands you can study the underwater world. For lovers of more active water entertainment, the resorts of Talamanca and Portinach, as well as Playa Den Boss in the south-east of the island, will be suitable for more active water entertainment.
In the east there are specially designated places for nudists and for representatives of sexual minorities. There are comfortable beaches for family pairs. And there are places where many celebrities, who want to relax in a relaxed atmosphere.
The "Beach" South of the island includes the whole range of entertainment, ranging from day-to-calm music to foam parties charging for two hundred percent. By the way, there is an unusual bar: all visitors "by chance" are poured from the hose with cold water. Your opinion on this account is not taken into account, because such a "chip" is the main attraction of the beach.
In the West of the island, you can relax in a quiet bay, where the yachts of rich people are resting.
The tired of water entertainment can be held on horseback riding to admire the delicious nature of Ibiza.
.. and about discotheki
Ibiza is among the top ten, where they are recognized by the world's most steep clubs of the world. Among them are two Titans: Privilege and Space. The first club is able to accommodate up to ten thousand people, in the center of the dance floor - a huge pool, in which costumed performances with all sorts of visual effects are held. In Space there are many sites, with different music. It is very convenient: the charter from the vigorous "sausage" can be launched, listening to "Medley" in another hall. Parties are open in the open air in the immediate vicinity of the runway.
Many clubs work around the clock. If you want to participate in the greatest number of parties, do not hurry to get into everything at once. The organizers representing their program tend to rent various platforms for their ideas. Find out in advance, witness what theme party you will become.
Realities of club life
The price for the entrance to the club will be from € 30 to € 80, while you cannot go beyond the limits of its territory. Otherwise you will have to re-pay. Tickets can be purchased in advance, it will be cheaper. Even more favorable option: Purchase Flyer. Drinks cost from € 15. Before entering, as a rule, there is a large parking. The dress code is missing.
Separately, it is necessary to highlight the legendary resting place - Bora Bora Beach and the center of the day club life of Ibiza. It constantly sounds music that can be danced for free. And you can darish on the sand, hiding from the scorching sun under the umbrella. He, by the way, is paid - € 15 complete with a sun bed.
In general, prices here are an order of magnitude higher than on mainland Spain. It is understandable: the desire of tourists get to the universal fun over the years only grows.
Food
Needless to say that there are incredibly many bar restaurants in Ibice, where you will be offered everything that only wishes the soul. The local kitchen is not limited to the Mediterranean Menu. But be prepared to give for a restaurant meal "A whole state". Not easier, but cheaper to buy products in the supermarket and cook something yourself. On the island popular "English" breakfast, which is offered everywhere and around the clock. It consists of eggs, bacon, toasts and coffee. There is such a meal € 3. Local Rich "Business Lunch" without delights, but with wine and even dessert will cost € 10.
Accommodation
We are not in vain so long introduced you to the case, describing the features of recreation in Ibiza. It is important to know what is happening in every part of the island to understand where you would like to stay.
Accommodation in club regions, such as Ibiza Town or San Antonio, inexpensive. Here come mainly for the sake of fun, and not for a quiet holiday with comfort. Therefore, the local public has low requirements for the service. But the cleanliness and the necessary minimum seems to be a soul and balcony is definitely available. Playa Den Boss, - On the contrary, the most expensive district of Ibiza. Here the money is "drown by the river", spending are calculated by thousands of euro per day.
On average, the cost of living on Ibiza ranges from one euro per day. This is if you do not count the extensions for restaurants and drinking.
Moving on the island
Forget about buses. They go slowly and rarely. And at night there is no. You can rent a car on Ibiza per day for € 30-90. It all depends on the class of the car. You can save here on pre-booking. Return and rental cars in non-working days - pluses for your budget. There are scooters, quad bikes, bicycles and, of course, a taxi.
sights
As you know, sooner or later you are tired of all: from sleepless nights and daytime "Lurestania." If such apathy attacks you - not trouble. In Ibiza there are still a lot of interesting things. For example, the oldest part of the Island of Dalt Vila, which is recognized by the World Heritage of UNESCO, where the Museum of Contemporary Art and the Cathedral is located.
Various caves, among them - Kan Mars - one of the most beautiful and ancient. The tour of her inner museum occupies somewhere half an hour. You can go around the whole island together with the guide and learn how Ibiza experienced times of hunger and poverty, Arabic IHO and many other curious historical facts.

Age to rest in Ibiza is not a hindrance.
- Tours on May to Spain
- Burning tours all over the world
The sun and the sea are not the main factors at all, for the sake of which thousands of tourists every summer suffer from the lowest prices, thrust on the beach and queues in restaurants. Ibiza is famous for the whole world with his parties and discos. The same capital of the island and the city of San Antonio is the most part of youth centers, where it takes mostly English youth, but the Germans, French, Spaniards are also found, and our compatriots are somewhat less likely. However, even in the summer in Ibice, we can find relatively secluded resorts, especially in the north of the island, where a week-other tourists with children will be perfect.
In the spring, autumn and in winter - another thing. In these periods, stocky Europeans arrive at the island for comfortable weather and long-awaited solitude.
